JS use video frame as canvas background

I'm attempting to use a the first frame of a video as the background of a canvas, as you probably guessed from the title of the question. I can set a background, I can get a frame from a video, but I can't make the frame be the background. It looks like I need a url for the frame to set as the background in the CSS style. For that, I need a blob on which I can call createObjURL() (although I'm discovering now that that method may be deprecated/ing).

Here's some code:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<canvas id="back" style="background-image: url('path/to/.png')";></canvas>
<input type="file" accept="video/*" />


<script>

  document.querySelector('input').addEventListener('change', extractFrame, false);

  var canvas = document.getElementById('back');
  var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
  var imageObj = new Image();
  var image;
  imageObj.onload = function() {
          var height = imageObj.height;
          var width = imageObj.width;
          canvas.height = height;
          canvas.width = width;
          context.drawImage(imageObj, 0, 0, back.width, back.height);
  };
  imageObj.src = "path/to/.png";



  var draw_canvas = document.getElementById('back');
  var draw_context = draw_canvas.getContext('2d');
  var corners = [];
  draw_canvas.addEventListener('mousedown',startDrawing,false);

  function startDrawing(e){
    corners.length=0;
    corners.push([e.layerX, e.layerY]);
    corners.push([e.layerX+1, e.layerY+1]);
    draw_canvas.addEventListener('mousemove', updateCorners,false);
    draw_canvas.addEventListener('mouseup',function(){
        draw_canvas.removeEventListener('mousemove', updateCorners,false);
    },false);
  }

  function updateCorners(e){
    corners[1] = [e.layerX, e.layerY]
    redraw();
  }

  function redraw(){
    draw_context.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
    draw_context.beginPath()
    draw_context.lineWidth = "2";
    draw_context.strokeStyle = "red";
    draw_context.rect(corners[0][0], corners[0][1], corners[1][0] - corners[0][0], corners[1][1] - corners[0][1]);
    draw_context.stroke();
  }

  function extractFrame(){
    var video = document.createElement('video');
    var array = [];

    function initCanvas(){
        canvas.width = this.videoWidth;
        canvas.height = this.videoHeight;
    }

    function drawFrame(e) {
        this.pause();
        context.drawImage(this, 0, 0);
        var blob = canvas.toBlob(saveFrame, 'image/png');
        var dataUrl = URL.createObjectURL(array[0]);
        document.getElementById('back').style.background = "url('${dataUrl}')";
        URL.revokeObjectURL(dataUrl);
    }

    function saveFrame(blob) {
        console.log(array);
        array.push(blob);
        console.log(array);
    }

    video.muted = true;
    video.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', initCanvas, false);
    video.addEventListener('timeupdate', drawFrame, false);
    video.src = URL.createObjectURL(this.files[0]);
    video.play();
  }

</script>

I've been messing with the ordering of the code, the objects I'm passing, etc. all day now and I have no idea what's keeping this from working. If it helps, one of the errors I get most often is

Failed to execute 'createObjectURL' on 'URL': Overload resolution failed.

Which a different question said may be because the object in the array is undefined or None or however JS describes it, but the logged array says that it is populated with blobs.

Any suggestions are appreciated. Happy to provide more code or specs if I can. Thanks!

EDIT: I've added more code so that it can be reproduced (I hope). I'm not hosting it anywhere but locally, so I hope this works for y'all.

ValueError: X has 10 features, but LinearRegression is expecting 1 features as input

So, I am trying to predict the model but its throwing error like it has 10 features but it expacts only 1. So I am confused can anyone help me with it? more importantly its not working for me when my friend runs it. It works perfectly fine dose anyone know the reason about it? cv = KFold(n_splits = 10) all_loss = [] for i in range(9): # 1st for loop over polynomial orders poly_order = i X_train = make_polynomial(x, poly_order) loss_at_order = [] # initiate a set to collect loss for CV for train_index, test_index in cv.split(X_train): print('TRAIN:', train_index, 'TEST:', test_index) X_train_cv, X_test_cv = X_train[train_index], X_test[test_index] t_train_cv, t_test_cv = t[train_index], t[test_index] reg.fit(X_train_cv, t_train_cv) loss_at_order.append(np.mean((t_test_cv - reg.predict(X_test_cv))**2)) # collect loss at fold all_loss.append(np.mean(loss_at_order)) # collect loss at order plt.plot(np.log(al...

Sorting large arrays of big numeric stings

I was solving bigSorting() problem from hackerrank: Consider an array of numeric strings where each string is a positive number with anywhere from to digits. Sort the array's elements in non-decreasing, or ascending order of their integer values and return the sorted array. I know it works as follows: def bigSorting(unsorted): return sorted(unsorted, key=int) But I didnt guess this approach earlier. Initially I tried below: def bigSorting(unsorted): int_unsorted = [int(i) for i in unsorted] int_sorted = sorted(int_unsorted) return [str(i) for i in int_sorted] However, for some of the test cases, it was showing time limit exceeded. Why is it so? PS: I dont know exactly what those test cases were as hacker rank does not reveal all test cases. source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73007397/sorting-large-arrays-of-big-numeric-stings
